Tracking changes to Asset status, condition etc
Tracking changes to Asset status, condition etc..
We use the basic Asset Portal, and accept this has limited functionality over the full Enterprise asset management module. However our requirements have changed and we need better management of lifecycle changes to our assets. On seeking further information on the enterprise asset management module capabilities i was disappointed to find out it didn't meet our needs, which i think are a fair requirement. These are:
If we make changes to an assets condition, i.e. Good > Poor > bad etc at each occasion where this change is made we want the changes history recorded - by who and date/time.
if we make changes to the asset status, i.e. in service > in repair > in service > out of service, again at each occasion we need to record a transaction showing when and who made the change.
This gives us lifecycle tracking of changes to an asset, and there's probably other fields within the asset (eq Table) where this type of transactional information should be recorded and tracked.
I believe this is a simple but important requirement and hope enough people agree, so Archibus action this change and include it in the product.
